EAST RUTHERFORD -- The Saturday of Labor Day weekend has become another dreaded necessarily evil of the NFL with cutdown day. It is a brutal 24 hours where lots of good, hard-working men lose their jobs and the ability to financially support their family.

At least 20 Giants will lose their jobs on Saturday when the roster gets trimmed from 75 to 53. Offensive lineman Eric Herman and cornerback Jayron Hosley will likely get stashed on the reserve/suspended list, with no paycheck coming (thanks to their own stupidity) for the first four weeks of the season.

Wait, there's more. Here is all you need to know about Giants cutdown day:

What: NFL cutdown day, the afternoon where NFL teams (including the Giants) must reduced their rosters to the 53-man limit for the regular season.

When: Cuts are due by 4 p.m. (ET), but the Giants are expected to talk with the affected players first thing in the morning. Players have been told to arrive at the facility between 8-11 a.m.

Who: Here was my 53-man roster prediction as of Friday morning. Notables absent from the list were QB Curtis Painter, RB Peyton Hillis, OL James Brewer and Charles Brown and DT Kelcy Quarles. Brown (shoulder) likely slipped back on since he started running on Friday, with WR/KR Trindon Holliday (hamstring) again off.

Here was Conor's 53-man projection as of Friday morning. Notables absent from the list were Painter, TE Adrien Robinson, Holliday and Quarles.

And here were a dozen players on the cut bubble after training camp closed two weeks ago.
